the readme file (Help option on the menu in the store), just opens a file with a link to the readme
Probably I will need to find from where the add-on store fetches the readme path. I need to look at the code and buildVars again after work though, I don't think I have explicitly written the repository URL, except when submitting this add-on to the store.
Adjusted in PR #6.
If you open the home page option before or after installing this add-on from the add-on store in NVDA, what opens is the old Community Add-ons Site http://addons.nvda-project.org. It is not even the direct link to your add-on's page there, if it has one.
This is being set in the add-on's
buildVars.py
file, if you're using the template, or is in the manifest.On a related note, the readme file (Help option on the menu in the store), just opens a file with a link to the readme on GitHub. That seems intentional, but it would be more convenient to have the real readme there, as some users are very uncomfortable with GitHub. Also, if someone translates your add-on in the future, having the readme be the actual
readme.md
file, will allow it to be translated.
